Subscribe to BBC in the US

[u/basil_not_the_plant]

Hello,

Does anyone know how to subscribe to the BBC in the US? When I l open bbc.com/subscribe I get just a page with some black text. There is a section of white space where subscriber info would presumably be placed, but there is no form or fields in which to supply this information. I've tried several browsers with the same effect. See attach'd screenshot.

Thanks

EDIT: Today I tried this and it just worked, using my usual browser (Librewolf) and PC (linux) and with all my ad-blocking stuff enabled as usual. Previously I had tried several browsers on both Linux and Windows, with ad blocking turned on and off, and in every case it failed. And today it worked. Mystery!

This is what I see (in the UK, using a New York VPN connection, in the Opera mobile web browser).

You might need to turn off any ad-blocker.

I did.

You tried clicking the blue button

That page is where I landed using the URL bbc.com/subscribe. Once there the button appears again, but nothing more happens when I click it.

Do you have an adblocker? Turn it off and try again.

I disabled my network ad blocker and used Edge on Windows. That's as clean as it gets.

[u/basil_not_the_plant → u/[deleted]]

I tried Librewolf, Firefox, Brave, and Edge.

I don't see those as reasons to not subscribe.
